Monster Needs Your Vote Book Review

In
this current political season with the multitude of candidates vying
for votes and trying to make political gains, it can be a complex and
taxing time figuring out who should get your vote. A lot is at stake and
your vote can be the determining factor in dictating how some parts of
society is run. "Monster Needs Your Vote" by Paul Czajak and illustrated by Wendy Grieb is the perfect book about politics
and moral causes. Czajak weaves an encouraging and fun tale that will
teach children about the voting process and the importance of making
their voice heard.

Using rhyme Czajak delivers an important message about standing up
for what you believe in. Monster was a dedicated candidate who didn't
want to let the citizens of America down. He found a issue that was
significant to everyone and fought to get his voice heard. Education is a
cause that is undeniably pertinent to society, so Monster ran his
campaign of protecting and enhancing education and educational resources
like libraries. Even when obstacles tried to stop him he didn't get
discouraged, he knew that what he was fighting for was worth being
persistent and rallying forward.

I truly enjoyed this story, and monster would definitely get my vote.
With beautifully written prose and illustrations that were rich and
striking, Monster wormed his way into my heart. I found his courage and
strength to fight for what he believed in to be empowering, smart and
refreshing. This book is definitely a winner and it is ideal to teach
young children about politics, democracy, and taking a stand for what
you believe in. Monster took a stand in a mighty way and this book will
definitely engage your children in politics in a cute and fun way.
